Not only is there no empirically verifiable evidence for the multiverse, there could not ever be. By definition, the constants and physical laws that make our universe possible would not apply in another. In short, our version of physics would have no applicability to the 'natural' laws of an alternate universe. The multiverse is an unfalsifiable faith-based theory.
In it's worst possible manifestation, it can still claim to be an unfalsificable faith based conjecture that is infinitely better than the best possible manifestation of your unfalsifiable faith based conjecture, because it does not threaten you if you conjecture differently, and it does not require you to make a total ass of yourself before your provable betters by insisting they ought to prostrate themselves before an unprovable sky tyrant who is said to fuck his own mother to give himself birth, just like you do.
Yeah well, they carry a weight to measure science and none to their beliefs. What is easier, to just believe, or to work to understand it. How much effort takes to believe in a god?
